To prevent the fighting, local people propose to contest the buffalo. Approve foreign troops and supplies a large buffalo and aggressive, while the local community to provide a baby buffalo who are hungry to be given a knife on his horns. In battle, the baby buffalo was thinking big buffalo is the parent and wanted to breastfeed the child's direct small buffalo horn and shredded buffalo stomach big. The victory inspired the local community take the name of the Minangkabau.

For the Minangkabau name itself, has also been used to refer to a village, ie of Nagari Minangkabau, which is located in the district Sungayang, Tanah Datar district, West Sumatra province. In the annals of the kingdom of Majapahit, 1365 AD Nagarakertagama bertarikh, also has no mention Minangkabwa name as one of the Malays who Defeat of the country.

While the name "Minang" itself also has been mentioned in the inscription of the bertarikh Kedukan Hill 682 AD and speaking Sanskrit. In the inscription it was stated that the founder of the kingdom of Sriwijaya named Dapunta Hyang starting from "Minānga". Some experts refer to the source of the inscription was suspected, said line 4 (... minānga) and 5th (tāmvan. ...) is actually incorporated, thereby becoming mināngatāmvan and translated with the meaning of the twin rivers. Twin River is thought to refer to the meeting (appointment) of two sources of Kampar River, namely Sungai Kampar Kanan Kiri and Sungai Kampar. But this argument was rebutted by Casparis, which proves that "tāmvan" nothing to do with "Intersection", because the word retrieval and estuaries are also found in the inscriptions of other relics of the era of Sriwijaya. Therefore Minanga word stands alone and is identical with the mention of Minang itself.
